Brake pads vs rotors: when to replace each
Pads wear first; rotors wear slower. Knowing the difference saves money.
Pads
Replace when under about 3 mm of friction material, or when the wear indicator squeals.
“Not sure what's wrong? Send us a short video on WhatsApp and we'll tell you if it can wait or needs attention now.”
Rotors
Replace if under minimum thickness, deeply scored or warped (pedal pulsing).
Our approach
We measure, show you photos, and recommend only what's needed.
